Akra Condos — 109 Erskine Avenue
A boutique building on a quiet Midtown street, a short walk from the Yonge and Eglinton intersection — 178 suites rather than 500, with the amenity programme built around wellness rather than square footage.
What is being built
178 suites across 22 storeys, ranging from one to three bedrooms with balcony or terrace options on select layouts. Boutique scale means fewer competing resale listings later — but also fewer units, so availability moves quickly.

Jatin’s honest read on Akra
Who this suits
Buyers who want boutique rather than tower. 178 suites is a materially different product from a 500-unit building. Fewer units means fewer near-identical listings competing with yours at resale — which matters a great deal in a soft market where undifferentiated units compete on price alone.
End users who value the wellness programme. Zen garden, infrared saunas, yoga studio and dedicated quiet spaces are a coherent set rather than a scattergun amenity list, and they suit people who will actually live here.
Anyone wanting Midtown on a quiet street. Erskine is residential; you are walking distance from the Yonge and Eglinton intersection without living on it.
What to watch
Boutique buildings usually carry higher maintenance fees per square foot, because fixed operating costs are spread across fewer owners. Compare the fee per square foot rather than the dollar amount, and check the reserve fund position — a small corporation has less cushion if a major capital item arrives early.
The Eglinton Crosstown LRT has been long delayed. It will improve this address when it runs. Do not pay for it as though it were already delivered.
Yonge & Eglinton has significant competing supply across other projects. Boutique scale insulates you somewhat, but not entirely.
The value question
The honest case for Akra is scarcity — of the building type, and of three-bedroom suites in Midtown. In a market where GTA condo values are down roughly 4.5% year over year, differentiated stock holds up better than undifferentiated stock, and 178 suites on a quiet street is differentiated.
The honest caution is that you pay for that in fees per square foot and probably in purchase price. Buy it as an end user on a long hold, not as a yield play — the arithmetic on Midtown boutique rarely works as a rental at current rates.
109 Erskine Avenue, Yonge & Eglinton, Toronto
Erskine Avenue is a quiet residential street in Midtown Toronto, a short walk east of the Yonge and Eglinton intersection — one of the city’s densest and best-served urban nodes outside the downtown core.
Getting around: Eglinton station on Line 1 puts you on the subway directly. The Eglinton Crosstown LRT will add east–west rapid transit along Eglinton when it opens; it has been substantially delayed, so treat it as future upside rather than a present amenity.
Nearby: Yonge Eglinton Centre, extensive restaurants and cafés, strong school options, and parks including Eglinton Park. Midtown is one of the few areas outside downtown where living without a car is genuinely straightforward.
Akra questions
What is Akra Condos?
Akra is a boutique 22-storey condominium at 109 Erskine Avenue near Yonge and Eglinton in Midtown Toronto, developed by Curated Properties. It contains 178 suites ranging from one to three bedrooms, with balcony or terrace options on select layouts, and an amenity programme focused on wellness including a Zen garden, yoga studio, fitness centre, infrared saunas and dedicated quiet spaces. It is under construction with occupancy planned for Summer 2026.
How many units are in Akra?
178 suites across 22 storeys, which makes it genuinely boutique by Toronto standards. This has a real resale implication: when a 500-unit tower registers, dozens of near-identical suites reach the market in the same quarter and compete directly on price. A 178-suite building does not do that, and in a soft market that scarcity is one of the more durable advantages a unit can have.
When is Akra ready for occupancy?
Occupancy is planned for Summer 2026 and the building is under construction. Pre-construction dates commonly shift, so treat it as an estimate rather than a commitment, and do not sign a lease elsewhere whose end date depends on it. Between move-in and condominium registration you will pay the builder monthly occupancy fees, which do not reduce your mortgage principal.
Is the Eglinton Crosstown LRT open near Akra?
The Eglinton Crosstown LRT will add east–west rapid transit along Eglinton Avenue and would improve this address when it runs, but it has been substantially delayed. Eglinton station on Line 1 already serves the area and provides direct subway access. The sound approach is to value the location on the transit that exists today and treat the Crosstown as upside if and when it opens.
Do boutique condos have higher maintenance fees?
Frequently yes, per square foot, because the fixed costs of operating a building are spread across fewer owners. Always compare the fee per square foot rather than the dollar amount. Also review the reserve fund study carefully — a smaller corporation has less financial cushion if a major capital item arrives earlier than planned, so a well-funded reserve matters more, not less, in a boutique building.
Is Akra a good investment?
It is better suited to an end user than an investor. Boutique buildings in Midtown rarely produce workable rental arithmetic at current interest rates, and higher fees per square foot compound that. Where Akra is strong is differentiation — 178 suites on a quiet street, with scarce three-bedroom layouts, in a market where undifferentiated units compete on price alone. Buy it to live in on a long horizon rather than for yield.
